Parasites: A Treatise on the Entozoa of Man and Animals
Thomas Spencer Cobbold
Not for the squeamish: a Victorian survey of the creatures that live inside us and our animals. Cobbold marches through the flukes, the tapeworms, the round worms, and the strange thorn-headed worms, naming hosts and life cycles with clinical calm. A landmark of early parasitology, thorough and unflinching. Discover the hidden zoo that shares your body and your barnyard.
Every copy includes a printable PDF edition, a beautifully typeset book you can print, mark up in the margins, and keep on your shelf. Yours the moment you own it.
